well, had to try my old spot out for some channel cats. its on the Grand River, and we all know it holds some bigs cats in it. got out, in the evening, because for some reason i only seem to get bites around dinner time till dusk. using dead minnows fished on bottom, i was able to produce a few fish. it was a nice evening, area is somewhat protected from wind, so its usually nice and calm there. takes some time to get them to bite, so it really is a patience game with these fish, just get set up, grab a magazine... and keep ur rod in arms reach. i;ve almost lots mine a few times... lol. i like to stand mine up against a big patch of grass, this way it won;t strain the rod when a big fish pulls it, yet still allows some resistence so a fish can pull and now take my rod with it. managed to get 3 cats in a couple hours of work. not bad, and scrappy buggers. nothing overly huge, biggest was about 8 lbs of so. but i didn;t bother weighing them.
First, and biggest of the day.
second kitty
and the last of the nite
